Synopsis
With one million CD-ROM users worldwide expanding a the rate of 50% per annum, there is an urgent need to demystify the technology of data recording/retrieval. This book will benefit students, engineers, and management from many disciplines who wish to understand and exploit the cost-effective potential of optical data storage and retrieval. This book provides a unique introduction to CD-ROM and other optical recording systems. This technology is used in one in ten of all new computer systems. Every sizable library has a CD-ROM system due to the volume of information recorded onto CD-ROM media. Multimedia systems in which audio, video, and data recording are all combined are being set up in business training centres, schools, and academic institutions. Erasable optical recording is essential for multimedia and this book clearly describes how the two competing systems work - the magneto-optic and the phase change type. This book will help all who use computer systems in their studies or in their businesses to understand an erasable technology that will eventually replace the floppy disc and will inform project managment about the CD-ROM, the publishing media of the future.

Review
Williams provides a good introdution to optical recording and storage systems, especially CD-ROM...From the first chapter, this book is focussed, well written, and to the point. It can be understood by any student with a second year background in physics of materials. The author smoothly
explains all the necessary background and presents advanced topics in a clear and readable fashion...Overall, this book is readable and informative for technicians as well as students who are interested in the field. The illustrations are clear and helpful. We strongly recommend this book.
